As Israel enters its 146th day at war, a rocket siren was heard in the towns of Rechasim and Ibtin in the Zvulun Valley near Haifa Bay.

These villages are located in close proximity to the chemical refineries and industrial area in Haifa Bay.

According to reports, the Iron Dome defense system was activated, intercepting a target in the air, which was followed by a loud explosion.

According to a Magen David Adom report, "Following the alarms in the last few minutes in the Zvulun Regional Council, no reports have been received about rocket falls or casualties."
